Product Description
Violet Red Bile Glucose Agar (VRBGA) is a specialized microbiological medium designed for the selective isolation and enumeration of coliform bacteria. This harmonized formula ensures consistent performance in laboratory settings, making it a trusted choice for researchers, educators, and students.
VRBGA contains bile salts and crystal violet, which inhibit the growth of Gram-positive bacteria while allowing coliforms to thrive. The glucose in the medium serves as a fermentable carbohydrate, producing acid that changes the pH indicator (neutral red) to a distinctive red color, aiding in identification.
